Changing sidebox from left to right

Hello,

I've searched the forum and the admin section of the zencart and couldn't find how to move a left side sidebox to the right side. Since I couldn't find anything related to this topic, I assumed it's something very easy. But till now, I'm unable to figure that out.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Tools -> Layout Boxs Controler

Re: Changing sidebox from left to right

Thanks for the reply. The section you mentioned is the place I have been playing around all the time, however I still can't see any option to change side of the side boxes. Here are the options available, could you please let me know which option will do the trick:

Box Details:
Box Name: document_categories.php
Left/Right Column Status: OFF
Location: (Single Column ignores this setting) LEFT
Left/Right Column Sort Order: 0
Single Column Sort Order: 0
Single Column Status: OFF

Thank you very much.

Regards,
M

Re: Changing sidebox from left to right

That worked. Thanks a lot. I'm still wondering why I didn't see that option all the while. ;P

Re: Changing sidebox from left to right

Hi.

Can I ask another question? Is there an easier way to leave a small gap between 2 side boxes? Currently there is a gap between my left side boxes. I need to increase the gap. How do I do this? On the right side, there is no gap and all the side boxes are touching each other. Is there a way to add a just like on the left side?

Thank you very much.

Regards,
M

Re: Changing sidebox from left to right

somewhere in your style sheet, there should be something like

.rightBoxContainer {
margin-bottom: 1em;
margin-top: 1em;
}

and

.lightBoxContainer {
margin-bottom: 1em;
margin-top: 1em;
}

if not, you will need to add them (use px em whatever you ned to get it to look how you want)
